Homemade Chocolate Granola
This recipe is a huge hit in our house! My family loves this for breakfast, snack and dessert. I make it once a week and it barely lasts the through the week. If you have a big clan feel free to double the recipe. What is great about this recipe is, you can customize the flavors. Just omit the cocoa powder. You can also add what ever fruit, nuts, candy that you like. Just remember to add the fruit AFTER the granola is baked. I also recommend using raw nuts, as the roasted nuts could get over baked or burnt. To avoid that you could just add your roasted nuts after the baking. Add this recipe to your breakfast collection. Enjoy!
